According to Toronto FC business head Paul Beirne the MLS Cup has sold out. He confirmed to Canadian Soccer News this evening that all remaining tickets have been moved.
However a quick Ticketmaster search at 6:15 p.m. did bring up a few single seats left. Speaking to the Fan 590 tonight CEO Tom Anselmi said that the game was "very close" to selling out.
Additionally, Beirne indicated that there was "extremely limited season seats remaining" for 2011. Although reluctant to give out a specific number he did indicate that the club expected to have sold out all 18,000 season seats by Friday.

The success might surprise some. During the height of protests against the pricing structure there were many that predicted that the club would not come close to selling out season seats. The club countered by suggesting that it had a significant waiting list and that the demand was there to not only fill any vacated seats, but to also sell an additional 2,000 seats in the expanded north end o the stadium.
It's possible that both positions had a point as it's been reported that members of the Red waiting list are being offered season seats. The Red list is only offered seats after the club goes through the entire Gold list, which is made up of those who purchased partial packs last year.
